By 1840 the daughters and oldest son were married and so the family was smaller. In 1850, the first year all members of a family and their ages are given in the census, John is listed as age 64, Catherine is 65 and they are living next to his son, Samuel and his family. Catherine died by the end of 1850 and in August 1851 John married a neighbor lady, Rebecca Davis, who was about 53 years old at that time, but not much is known about her. John and Rebecca were listed in the 1860 census, with no one else in their family. Rebecca died about 1862.
